Jake and the Burtones are a local band here in Northern Virginia. I saw them last Friday night in Purcellville, at Market Street Coffee. If you're in the area, this is a very casual, relaxed place to hang out, and especially rewarding when these guys are playing. They call it "Loudoun's Living Room," which I think is appropriate.

Jake and the Burtones is made up of (left to right) Josh Cava, Jack Pugh, and Tmony Griffin (no Jake among them). They have gained some familiarity with me now, getting used to the old guy with the cameras that always smiles when they indulge him with a set of Grateful Dead cover tunes. I'm still hoping for that "Brokedown Palace" someday...

On this occasion, I took the opportunity to ask them for one posed shot during their break, photographing them from the inside of the door, which included a flyer for their show:

This is a hard-working band. Be sure and tip them on your way out!

The shot above was made with the first Leica lens I ever owned. The Summarit 5cm is a Sonnar design, from what I understand. It's not the sharpest tool in the shed, but it sure has character. I love the out of focus highlights.
Thanks for another fun night in the neighborhood, boys. See you next time.
